Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: State and local governments in this country have adopted a number of policies to regulate the conversion of rural land to developed uses. One of the most significant and least understood is preferential assessment of rural land under the real property tax, often called use-value assessment (UVA) or current-use assessment. This book explains and analyzes the critical questions raised by this fiscal tool for farmland preservation. Under UVA, the assessments of various parcels of land within a given state may vary tremendously from property to property. A tract that is zoned residential with access to a turnpike might be assessed at $7,865 per acre. In the very same neighborhood, though, an even larger tract of vacant land might be assessed at a mere $127 per acre, which is far below the market value. How can there be such dramatic differences in the assessment of land values within the same community or neighborhood? Has the town assessor failed to treat property owners fairly and equally, as required by state law? Not at all. Nearly all states across the country permit, and even require, local assessors to value some parcels of undeveloped land far below their fair market values for the purpose of levying local property taxes. Despite their stated purpose of preserving rural lands from urban development, UVA programs can have unintended negative consequences. One is erosion of the legal and constitutional principle of uniformity of taxation; another is shifting of the local tax burden to other property owners, perhaps in a regressive manner. Occasionally UVA programs generate political controversy and even legislative action concerning "fake farmers" who enjoy low property tax bills, but whose land might only be used to sell firewood or Christmas trees to a few friends and neighbors. This volume explains the origins, key features, impacts, and flaws of use-value assessment programs across the United States. It describes in detail the process and characteristics of UVA programs in 44 states and recommends reforms. This book serves as a road map for public officials, scholars, and journalists concerned with agricultural taxation and land use issues.

This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crop land suitability analysis is a prerequisite to achieve optimum utilization of available land resource for sustainable agricultural production. The objectives of this study were to set up detailed information on the suitability of the land under consideration and to establish the map of land suitability for major crops using GIS techniques. The study was conducted at Fogera Plain, South Gonder, Ethiopia. A frame work for land evaluation FAO (1976) recommended an approach for land suitability evaluation for crops interms of suitability rating from highly suitable to not suitable based on climatic, terrain data and soil properties crop wise. Selection of the location of the soil sampling spots was based on free and grid survey techniques and their locations were taken on the field using Global Positioning System (GPS). Geographical information system (GIS) was used to develop crop land suitability map of the study area.
